I am not revising my critical question. I believe that my question fits all the criteria. My question has personal meaning to me as an athlete. It relates to society, because everyone has been in the position where the are either bigger, better, and stronger, or they need their will to overcome. You can also have multiple answers. It can be about sports or even related the workplace, or school. You can further ask questions and delve deeper into this and the societal meaning behind it. It is not too broad, and it’s not too specific because it can relate to everything and everyone. Also this question does not include my judgement and it’s open ended enough to answer however you would like.

Since I have talked about when will can take over physicality. Let’s talk about when physicality wins. If we take the the example of Lebron James. Lebron is a physical specimen. He measures in at 6’8 and 250 pounds. He also was perfected the craft of basketball. Hailing at the league's MVP four times. He has also gotten to the NBA final 5 times in row. He is the best player in the world. However, during this NBA finals people are rooting against Lebron. They are rooting for Steph Curry. They in this case want will to overcome physicality. In this case and in many with Lebron this is not the case. Many people have a negative emotional reaction to him winning. Why? I believe that this is because people want will to win out. Lebron has both will and physicality. Why does this combination scare people so badly? Is it a natural human reaction to hate someone who is better than you? Why do people not use this hate as a positive thing to help defeat their enemy? To me this brings about many interesting psychological issues. Is the human mind automatically wired to hate physicality to win. I have so many questions about this. Many people react negatively to physically, but they also react positively as well. Lebron James is considered an idol by many. Some people know everything about Lebron and aspire to be him. So do people inherently want to be physical? Does it have to do with Darwin's theory? Why does this scare people so much? D0 we have something like an instinct to stay away from things that are bigger and stronger? Do we have natural tendency to fear the “villain.” It would be interesting to find out why we fear the villain and why some people idolize them.
In your brainstorming paragraph, you bring up some outstanding and very interesting questions! I am really interested in the idea that you raise about people "wanting will to win out?

Your critical question though, as it stands right now, does it still seem a little bride. It also seems a little difficult to answer because there are so many answers.

ReplyDeleteThe two players seem like a good start for your artifact but you might want to think about how you will connect them to your life.
